A bientôt, Aix

My six weeks in Aix-en-Provence have come to a close. It’s hard to imagine how much of an impact 6 weeks can make on your life, but change knows neither boundaries nor limits. In some ways, it’s too soon to see any sort of difference as time allows for the greatest reflections. In other ways,…

Bye Bye London

French people are usually stereotyped as being rude to Americans, but everyone I have interacted with has been so friendly. My French…

Final Days in Korea

I can’t believe my time in Seoul is coming to an end. Classes have ended, and I am finishing up my final exams this week. In 10 days, I will be boarding the 12-hour flight back to the States, before my layover to Pittsburgh. I’m very excited to come home, but I am certainly going…

Officially a Londoner!

It has almost been one month since I first arrived in London! That is so crazy for me to say because it feels like I just got here last week. The adjustment to work and classes abroad was surprisingly a very easy one. I have met a lot of amazing people through classes, work, or…
